Global Society Delegation at UN Summits in New York

New York City, September 19, 2024 - This September, a series of crucial global events will take place in New York City, attracting world leaders, business executives, and environmental advocates alike. These events will shape discussions on the future of global governance, climate action, and sustainable development.

The Summit of the Future will convene thought leaders and decision-makers to reimagine global governance frameworks for the coming decades. Aimed at tackling pressing global challenges, such as inequality and technological disruption, the summit will provide a platform for dialogue on how international cooperation can adapt in an increasingly complex world.

At the same time, the UN Global Compact Leaders Summit will bring together leaders from the corporate world to discuss strategies for advancing sustainable business practices. The focus will be on integrating environmental, social, and governance (ESG) factors into business models to address critical global issues like poverty and climate change.

Coinciding with these events is the United Nations General Assembly's 79th session, where heads of state and government representatives will gather to address the world's most pressing concerns, including geopolitical tensions, economic inequality, and global health. The assembly will also focus on the implementation of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.

Running parallel to these political and corporate gatherings is Climate Week NYC, an annual event dedicated to advancing climate action. With events ranging from high-level discussions to grassroots initiatives, Climate Week aims to foster collaboration between governments, businesses, and civil society to tackle the climate crisis head-on.

Global Society Delegation

As part of these events, a delegation of the global society has gathered New York City from September 19th to 30th to negotiate relevant urgent issues. The reformation of institutions, the impending failure of the SDGs and other topics such as peace restoration, systems confrontation, re-naturalization and more specific topics like circular economy and child slavery are on the agenda. The agenda setting has been done by members of the global civil society representing all regions and sectors of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The results of these talks will form the foundation for the future form of joint civil cooperation on global challenges.

Global Society News (GSN), will provide continued coverage and follow-up on these initiatives, offering insights into the progress made towards reform and cooperation at the international level.

With global collaboration now seen as more urgent than ever, the outcomes of these summits will have far-reaching implications for future efforts to build a just and sustainable global future.
